Logitech K810 ok for gaming?

Been using a K360 for some armchair gaming but the keys are just too clunky and don't get on with the carpal tunnel in my left hand. Been looking at the K810 which from all the reviews has a more precise, even feel with the keys (Logitech 'Perfectstroke'), which I'm hoping will be better for me. Just wondering if anyone has used this for gaming and care to comment?.

Whatever lag there is with the old K360 is acceptable at my level of gaming, but wondering how bluetooth is in comparison. Distance to receiver will not be much more than about 3ft.

thanks.

hmm... make sure the keyboard has no key-ghosting first, if you gonna play FPS games and whatnot.

I've played on a Illuminated Keyboard (similar in style). It works fine, if it wasn't for the key ghosting. Dunno about latency, I would suspect minimal, and as for reliable connectivity, dunno either.

How would I find out about the key ghosting?

thanks for replying.

I guess look around on the net, from user, of specifications. If there is no info on that particular feature, then I'd pass, personally. Logitech as a history of 'gimping' their non-gamer hardware, and if it's not advertised, then who knows.

Yeah, guess i'll ask on their official forum.
